From @mortreport and me: Mississippi St. DT Jeffery Simmons, projected to be a top 15-pick in April, suffered a knee injury during training that is thought to be a torn ACL, per league sources. A statement to offer clarity on Simmons' injury is expected to be released today.

Simmons is one of the many talented defensive tackles in this draft class. The injury will likely hurt his draft stock, as Simmons already wasn’t invited to the 2019 NFL Combine due to a physical altercation with a woman in 2016.

In his career at Mississippi State, Simmons had 163 total tackles, 33 tackles for loss, seven sacks, seven passes defended, two fumble recoveries, five fumbles forced and one touchdown scored.
